B2B Sales Executive - Private Equity Executive Search
High-value sales | £87k average fee | Speak with CEOs and investors | Build Raw Selection to £10M
Base salary: depending on experience
OTE: Uncapped and performance-led
Raw Selection is an executive search firm partnering with Private Equity firms and their portfolio companies to secure CEO, CFO, COO and other senior executive talent across the US.
We are entering our next phase of growth, with our first major milestone being £10M revenue.
To get there, we want to hire proven B2B salespeople who already understand prospecting, targets, rejection and winning business - and train them to apply those skills in a much higher-value market.
Why move into executive search?
Sell something worth more
Our average search fee is £87,000. One successful assignment can represent a significant piece of revenue, our largest is £220,403.
You will build relationships with CEOs, CFOs, Private Equity investors and senior business leaders across the US.
Increase your earning ceiling
You already know how to sell. We provide the market, training, systems and commission structure to help you turn that skill into substantially higher earnings.
Develop faster
Daily training, live call reviews, one-to-one coaching, external trainers and managers whose job is to make you better.
Progress based on performance, not tenure
Your career moves as quickly as your capability and results justify.
What you will do
- Prospect Private Equity firms and PE-backed businesses
- Build relationships with senior decision-makers
- Generate new retained-search opportunities
- Pitch Raw Selection's executive search service
- Manage client relationships throughout the search
- Work alongside our dedicated Research team, who identify, interview and assess executive candidates
- Build specialist expertise in sectors such as Manufacturing, Aerospace, Consumer and Trade Services
Because we operate a 180 model, you can focus on becoming exceptional at business development and client management rather than trying to do every part of recruitment.
What makes Raw Selection different?
We are built to turn high-potential people into exceptional executive search professionals.
We invest relentlessly in every Raw Selectioner through:
- daily training
- one-to-one coaching
- external trainers
- structured development
- clear standards
- leaders whose job is to make every Raw Selectioner better
We combine that development with high-value retained search work, ambitious growth plans and a culture where people are expected to improve every day, own their goals and win together.
What we are looking for
You do not need recruitment experience.
You do need evidence that you can sell.
Ideally you will have:
- 1-5 years of B2B sales experience
- Experience generating new business through outbound activity
- Worked to clear sales or revenue targets
- Evidence of hitting or exceeding those targets
- Strong communication and questioning skills
- High resilience
- High personal standards
- Ambition to materially increase your earnings and responsibility
- Coachability and a genuine desire to improve
This will suit you if...
You have already proved you can sell, but you feel your current role has a ceiling.
You want:
- bigger earning potential
- more senior clients
- better training
- faster progression
- a business where high performance creates real opportunity
"You've already proven you can sell. We'll help you raise the value of what you sell, who you sell to and what you can earn."
